Mom drama

So am I in the wrong? I have become friends with my husbands employee. She has a son around my daughter’s age. He is about to turn three and my daughter just turned two.

Friendships

Does anyone else find it harder finding friends in your upper 30s? I always had friends but lately I find myself not really associating a lot with a lot of ppl. I would love to find a really good group of women and if it’s just one or two I would be fine with that! I just miss having a good connection with a couple ...

Almost 40 moms

Does anyone else have trouble finding friends close to their ages? I’m almost 40 with a 1.5 year old. Definitely did it a little later than a lot. While I don’t mind meeting younger people, I worry about being able to relate due to the age difference. I need a mom tribe and don’t even know where to begin.

So I’m a little over 5 months pp and I’m still struggling. Like we have sex and I can even orgasm but it has to be very gentle and vanilla(which wasn’t really our style before lol). And even when it goes well it gets to the point where it feels like there are razor blades on his penis! And afterwards it hurts to pee...

Being Married

Question for married women. I’m really wondering, as a married woman, are you happier?, feel more secure and confident? What benefits other than money do you have? Or if your husband doesn’t have “money” like that, what did you gain by getting married? I’m genuinely curious. Me and my boyfriend are not married and ...
